the American College of Cardiology Foundation (ACCF), and the American Heart Association (AHA), in collaboration with the American Academy of Neurology (AAN), the American College of Physicians (ACP), the American Geriatrics Society (AGS), the American Society of Hypertension (ASH), the American Society of Nephrology (ASN), the American Society for Preventive Cardiology (ASPC), the Association of Black Cardiologists (ABC), and the European Society of Hypertension (ESH) Expert consensus documents are intended to inform practitioners, payers, and other interested parties of the opinion of ACCF and document cosponsors concerning evolving areas of clinical practice and/or technologies that are widely available or new to the practice community Topics chosen for coverage by expert consensus documents are so designed because the evidence base, the experience with technology, and/or clinical practice are not considered sufficiently well developed to be evaluated by the formal ACCF/AHA practice guidelines process Often the topic is the subject of considerable ongoing investigation Thus, the reader should view the expert consensus document as the best attempt of the ACCF and document cosponsors to inform and guide clinical practice in areas where rigorous evidence may not yet be available or evidence to date is not widely applied to clinical practice When feasible, expert consensus documents include indications or contraindications Typically, formal recommendations are not provided in expert consensus documents as these documents not formally grade the quality of evidence, and the provision of “Recommendations” is felt to be more appropriately within the purview of the ACCF/AHA practice guidelines However, recommendations from ACCF/AHA practice guidelines and ACCF appropriate use criteria are presented where pertinent to the discussion The writing committee is in agreement with these recommendations Finally, some topics covered by expert consensus documents will be addressed subsequently by the ACCF/AHA Task Force on Practice Guidelines The ACCF Task Force on Clinical Expert Consensus Documents makes every effort to avoid any actual or potential conflicts of interest that might arise as a result of an outside relationship or personal interest of a member of the writing panel Specifically, all members of the writing committee are asked to provide disclosure statements of all such relationships that might be perceived as relevant to the writing effort This information is documented in a table, reviewed by the parent task force before final writing committee selections are made, reviewed by the writing committee in conjunction with each conference call and/or meeting of the group, updated as changes occur throughout the document development process, and ultimately published as an appendix to the document External peer reviewers of the document are asked to provide this information as well The disclosure information for writing committee members and peer reviewers is listed in Appendixes and 2, respectively, of this document Disclosure information for members of the ACCF Task Force on Clinical Expert Consensus

Consensus Documents Executive Summary This document was written with the intent to be a complete reference at the time of publication on the topic of managing hypertension in the elderly Given the length of the document, the writing committee included this executive summary to provide a quick reference for the busy clinician Because additional detail is needed, please refer to the sections of interest in the main text The tables and figures in the document also delineate important considerations on this topic, including the treatment algorithm in Section 4.2.2.1 General Considerations Our population is aging, and as hypertension affects most elderly people (Ն65 years of age), these individuals are more likely to have organ damage or clinical cardiovascular disease (CVD) They represent management dilemmas because most hypertension trials had upper age limits or did not present age-specific results However, because the Hypertension in the Very Elderly Trial (HYVET) documented antihypertensive therapy benefits in persons Ն80 years of age, it is timely to place into perspective issues relevant to hypertension management in elderly patients Pathophysiology of Hypertension in the Elderly Age-associated increases in hypertension prevalence derive from changes in arterial structure and function accompanying aging Large vessels become less distensible, which increases pulse wave velocity, causing late systolic blood pressure (SBP) augmentation and increasing myocardial oxygen demand Reduction of forward flow also occurs, limiting organ perfusion These undesirable alterations are enhanced with coronary stenosis or excessive drug-induced diastolic blood pressure (DBP) reduction Autonomic dysregulation contributes to orthostatic hypotension (a risk factor for falls, syncope, and cardiovascular [CV] events) and orthostatic hypertension (a risk factor for left ventricular hypertrophy [LVH], coronary artery disease [CAD], and cerebrovascular disease) Progressive renal dysfunction, because of glomerulosclerosis and interstitial fibrosis with a reduction in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and other renal homeostatic mechanisms such as membrane sodium/ potassium–adenosine triphosphatase, fosters hypertension through increased intracellular sodium, reduced sodium– calcium exchange, and volume expansion Microvascular damage contributes to chronic kidney disease (CKD) as reduced renal tubular mass provides fewer transport pathways for potassium excretion; thus elderly hypertensive patients are prone to hyperkalemia Secondary causes of hypertension should be considered, such as renal artery stenosis (RAS), obstructive sleep apnea, primary aldosteronism, and thyroid disorders Lifestyle, substances, and medications (tobacco, alcohol, caffeine, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs [NSAIDs], glucocorticoids, sex hormones, calcium, and vitamins D and C) can also be important contributors End-Organ Effects The following are highly prevalent among the elderly and associated with poor blood pressure (BP) control: cerebrovascular disease (ischemic stroke, cerebral hemorrhage, vascular dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, and accelerated cognitive decline); CAD (including myocardial infarction [MI] and angina pectoris); disorders of left ventricular (LV) structure and function (including LVH and heart failure [HF]); cardiac rhythm disorders (atrial fibrillation [AF] and sudden death); aortic and peripheral arterial disease [PAD]) (including abdominal aortic aneurysm [AAA], thoracic aortic aneurysm, acute aortic dissection and occlusive PAD); CKD (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] Ͻ60 mL/min/1.73 m2; ophthalmologic disorders (including hypertensive retinopathy, retinal artery occlusion, nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy, age-related macular degeneration, and neovascular age-related macular degeneration); and quality of life (QoL) issues Interactions Between Aging and CV Risk Conditions Associated With Hypertension Because dyslipidemia and hypertension are common among the elderly, it is reasonable to be aggressive with lipid lowering in elderly hypertensive patients Elderly patients with hypertension and diabetes mellitus have a higher mortality risk than similarly aged nondiabetic controls Hypertension is an insulin-resistant state because SBP, fasting glucose, and thiazide diuretic and/or beta-blocker use are independent risk factors for incident diabetes mellitus Albuminuria is a predictor of higher mortality risk among those with diabetes mellitus Obesity is associated with increases in LV wall thickness, volume, and mass, independent of BP Adipose tissue produces all components of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) locally, leading to development of obesity-related hypertension Increased angiotensin II (AII) may contribute to insulin resistance Activation of tissue RAAS contributes to vascular inflammation and fibrosis Renin and aldosterone may also promote atherosclerosis and organ failure Microalbuminuria is associated with CAD, HF, and mortality Screening for albuminuria is recommended for all elderly hypertensive patients with concomitant diabetes mellitus and for those with mild and moderate CKD Gout incidence rates are times higher in hypertensive patients versus normotensive patients; thiazide diuretics increase serum uric acid levels and may provoke gout Serum uric acid independently predicts CV events in older hypertensive persons; therefore, monitoring serum uric acid during diuretic treatment is reasonable Arthritis is a common prob- Downloaded from content.onlinejacc.org by on April 25, 2011 Aronow et al Hypertension in the Elderly JACC Vol 57, No 20, 2011 May 17, 2011:000–00 lem in the elderly, with implications for hypertension and adverse outcomes related to medications NSAIDs are implicated in BP elevation, and a chronic inflammatory burden may lead to increased arterial stiffness Other drugs such as cyclo-oxygenase-2 inhibitors, glucocorticoids, and some disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (e.g., cyclosporine, leflunomide) may increase BP Clinical Assessment and Diagnosis Diagnosis of hypertension should be based on at least different BP measurements, taken on Ն2 separate office visits At least measurements should be obtained once the patient is seated comfortably for at least minutes with the back supported, feet on the floor, arm supported in the horizontal position, and the BP cuff at heart level Pseudohypertension is a falsely increased SBP that results from markedly sclerotic arteries that not collapse during cuff inflation (e.g., “noncompressible”) Although this occurs more commonly in the elderly, the actual prevalence is unclear Identification of pseudohypertension is necessary to avoid overtreating high BP and should be suspected in elders with refractory hypertension, no organ damage, and/or symptoms of overmedication White-coat hypertension is more common in the elderly and frequent among centenarians Ambulatory BP monitoring is recommended to confirm a diagnosis of white-coat hypertension in patients with persistent office hypertension but no organ damage Ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM) is indicated when hypertension diagnosis or response to therapy is unclear from office visits, when syncope or hypotensive disorders are suspected, and for evaluation of vertigo and dizziness The case for using out-of-office BP readings in the elderly, particularly home BP measurements, is strong due to potential hazards of excessive BP reduction in older people and better prognostic accuracy versus office BP Recommendations for Management General Considerations Because there is limited information for evidence-based guidelines to manage older hypertension patients, the following recommendations are based on expert opinion that we believe provide a reasonable clinical approach Evaluation of the elderly patient with known or suspected hypertension must accurately determine BP, and if elevated: 1) identify reversible and/or treatable causes; 2) evaluate for organ damage; 3) assess for other CVD risk factors/comorbid conditions affecting prognosis; and 4) identify barriers to treatment adherence Evaluation includes a history, physical exam, and laboratory testing It is most important to focus on aspects that relate to hypertension, including details concerning the duration, severity, causes, or exacerbations of high BP, current and previous treatments including adverse effects, assessment of target organ damage, and other CVD risk factors and comorbidities, as noted in the preceding text There is limited evidence to support routine laboratory testing Instead, a more deliberative, reasoned approach to testing is recommended: 1) urinalysis for evidence of renal damage, espe- cially albuminuria/microalbuminuria; 2) blood chemistries (especially potassium and creatinine with eGFR); 3) total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, highdensity lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglycerides; 4) fasting blood sugar (including hemoglobin A1c if there are concerns about diabetes mellitus); and 5) electrocardiogram (ECG) In selected elderly persons, 2-dimensional echocardiography is useful to evaluate for LVH and LV dysfunction that would warrant additional therapy (i.e., angiotensinconverting enzyme inhibitors [ACEIs], beta blockers) BP Measurement and Goals Reliable, calibrated BP measurement equipment is essential for hypertension management The BP should also be measured with the patient standing for to minutes to evaluate for postural hypotension or hypertension The general recommended BP goal in uncomplicated hypertension is Ͻ140/90 mm Hg However, this target for elderly hypertensive patients is based on expert opinion rather than on data from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) It is unclear whether target SBP should be the same in patients 65 to 79 years of age as in patients Ͼ80 years of age QoL and Cognitive Function Because symptomatic wellbeing, cognitive function, physical activity, and sexual function are diminished by aging and disease, it is important to give particular attention to QoL areas when making therapeutic decisions Nonpharmacological Treatment Lifestyle modification may be the only treatment necessary for milder forms of hypertension in the elderly Smoking cessation, reduction in excess body weight and mental stress, modification of excessive sodium and alcohol intake, and increased physical activity may also reduce antihypertensive drug doses Weight reduction lowers BP in overweight individuals, and combined with sodium restriction, results in greater benefit BP declines from dietary sodium restriction are generally larger in older than in young adults Increased potassium intake, either by fruits and vegetables or pills, also reduces BP, especially in individuals with higher dietary sodium intake Alcohol consumption of Ͼ2 alcoholic drinks per day is strongly associated with BP elevations, and BP generally declines after reduced alcohol intake, though evidence is limited among older adults Exercise at moderate intensity elicits BP reductions similar to those of more intensive regimens Management of Associated Risk Factors and Team Approach Many risk stratification tools calculate risk estimates using an overall or “global” instrument like the Framingham Risk Score for predicting MI, stroke, or CVD These instruments emphasize age and classify all persons Ͼ70 or 75 years of age as high risk (i.e., Ն10% risk of CAD in next 10 years), or very high risk (e.g., those with diabetes mellitus or CAD), thus deserving antihypertensive therapy Furthermore, analyses have not suggested that elderly subgroups differed from younger subgroups in response to multiple risk Downloaded from content.onlinejacc.org by on April 25, 2011 Aronow et al Hypertension in the Elderly JACC Vol 57, No 20, 2011 May 17, 2011:000–00 interventions Patient management is often best accomplished by employing a health care team that may include clinical pharmacists, nurses, physician assistants, clinical psychologists, and others (as necessary) Technology enhancements to assist in achieving and maintaining goals range from simple printed prompts and reminders to telemedicine and text messaging Considerations for Drug Therapy Drug treatment for elderly hypertensive patients has been generally recommended but with a greater degree of caution due to alterations in drug distribution and disposal and changes in homeostatic CV control, as well as QoL factors However, patients in most hypertension trials were Ͻ80 years of age Pooling the limited number of octogenarians from several trials mainly composed of younger patients, treated patients showed a reduction in both stroke and CV morbidity, but a trend toward increased all-cause mortality compared to controls Thus, the overall benefits of treating octogenarians remain unclear despite epidemiological evidence that hypertension remains a potent CV risk factor in this age group Results of HYVET, documenting reduced adverse outcomes with antihypertensive drugs in persons Ն80 years of age, requires updating previous recommendations Initiation of Drug Therapy The initial antihypertensive drug should be started at the lowest dose and gradually increased, depending on BP response, to the maximum tolerated dose An achieved SBP Ͻ140 mm Hg, if tolerated, is recommended except for octogenarians (see special populations in the following text) If the BP response is inadequate after reaching “full dose” (not necessarily maximum recommended dose), a second drug from another class should be added provided the initial drug is tolerated If there are adverse effects or no therapeutic response, a drug from another class should be substituted If a diuretic is not the initial drug, it is usually indicated as the second drug If the antihypertensive response is inadequate after reaching full doses of classes of drugs, a third drug from another class should be added When BP is Ͼ20/10 mm Hg above goal, therapy should be initiated with antihypertensive drugs However, treatment must be individualized in the elderly Before adding new antihypertensive drugs, possible reasons for inadequate BP response should be examined On average, elderly patients are taking Ͼ6 prescription drugs, so polypharmacy, nonadherence, and potential drug interactions are important concerns Specific Drug Classes Thiazide diuretics (hydrochlorothiazide [HCTZ], chlorthalidone, and bendrofluazide [bendrofluomethiazide]) are recommended for initiating therapy They cause an initial reduction in intravascular volume, peripheral vascular resistance, and BP, and are generally well tolerated Several trials demonstrate reduced CV, cerebrovascular, and renal adverse outcomes in the elderly Aging-related physiological changes can be exacerbated with diuretics The elderly generally have contracted intravascular volumes and impaired baroreflexes Diuretics cause sodium and water depletion and may promote orthostatic hypotension Older people have a high prevalence of LVH, which predisposes them to ventricular arrhythmias and sudden death Thiazide diuretics can cause hypokalemia, hypomagnesemia, and hyponatremia, which increase arrhythmias The elderly have a tendency toward hyperuricemia, glucose intolerance, and dyslipidemia, all of which are exacerbated by thiazides Nevertheless, thiazides reduce CV events in the elderly to a similar extent as other drug classes Non-Thiazide Diuretics Indapamide is a sulfonamide diuretic used for hypertension This drug increases blood glucose, but not uric acid, and can cause potassiumindependent prolongation of the QT interval Caution is advised when used with lithium Furosemide and analogs (bumetanide or torsemide) are loop diuretics sometimes used for hypertension complicated by HF or CKD They increase glucose and may cause headaches, fever, anemia, or electrolyte disturbances Mineralocorticoid antagonists (spironolactone and eplerenone) and epithelial sodium transport channel antagonists (amiloride and triamterene) are useful in hypertension when combined with other agents In contrast to thiazides and loop diuretics, these drugs cause potassium retention and are not associated with adverse metabolic effects Beta blockers have been used for hypertension, but evidence for a benefit in the elderly has not been convincing They may have a role in combination therapy, especially with diuretics Beta blockers are indicated in the treatment of elderly patients who have hypertension with CAD, HF, certain arrhythmias, migraine headaches, and senile tremor Although earlier beta blockers have been associated with depression, sexual dysfunction, dyslipidemia, and glucose intolerance, these side effects are less prominent or absent with newer agents Although the efficacy of alpha blockers is documented, their usefulness is very limited because doxazosin showed excess CV events compared with chlorthalidone in ALLHAT (Antihypertensive and Lipid-Lowering Treatment to Prevent Heart Attack Trial) (greater than a 2-fold increase in HF and ϳ20% increase in stroke) Based on these findings, alpha blockers should not be considered as first-line therapy for hypertension in older adults Calcium antagonists (CAs) have widely variable effects on heart muscle, sinus node function, atrioventricular conduction, peripheral arteries, and coronary circulation They include phenylalkylamines (verapamil); benzothiazepines (diltiazem); and dihydropyridines (nifedipine, nicardipine, nimodipine, amlodipine, felodipine, isradipine, nitrendipine) Results of controlled trials have demonstrated the safety and efficacy of CAs in elderly patients with hypertension They appear well suited for elderly patients, whose hypertensive profile is based on increasing arterial stiffness, decreased vascular compliance, and diastolic dysfunction Because they have multiple applications, including treat- Downloaded from content.onlinejacc.org by on April 25, 2011 Aronow et al Hypertension in the Elderly JACC Vol 57, No 20, 2011 May 17, 2011:000–00 ment of angina and supraventricular arrhythmias, CAs are useful for elderly hypertensive patients with these comorbid CV conditions Most adverse effects of dihydropyridines relate to vasodilation (e.g., ankle edema, headache, postural hypotension) Postural hypotension is associated with an increased risk of dizziness and falls and a serious concern for elderly patients Short-acting rapid-release dihydropyridines must be avoided Verapamil and diltiazem can precipitate heart block in elderly patients with underlying conduction defects First-generation CA (nifedipine, verapamil, and diltiazem) should be avoided in patients with LV systolic dysfunction ACEIs block conversion of AI to AII, both in tissue and plasma to lower peripheral vascular resistance and BP without reflex stimulation of heart rate and contractility They reduce morbidity and mortality in patients with HF, reduce systolic function post-MI, and retard progression of diabetic renal disease and hypertensive nephrosclerosis Main adverse effects include hypotension, chronic dry cough, and, rarely, angioedema or rash Renal failure can develop in those with RAS Hyperkalemia can occur in patients taking potassium supplements, as well those with renal insufficiency Rarely, neutropenia or agranulocytosis can occur; close monitoring is suggested during the first months of therapy Angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) selectively block AT1-receptor subtype and, overall, are similar to other agents in reducing BP, are well tolerated, protect the kidney, and reduce mortality and morbidity in HF patients In elderly hypertensive patients with diabetes mellitus, ARBs are considered first line and as an alternative to ACEI in patients with hypertension and HF who cannot tolerate ACEIs Direct Renin Inhibitors Aliskiren is as effective as ARBs or ACEIs for BP lowering without dose-related increases in adverse events in elderly patients Combined with HCTZ, ramipril, or amlodipine, aliskiren causes greater BP lowering than with either agent alone Evidence is lacking combining aliskiren with beta blockers or maximal dose ACEIs, and only limited data are available in black hypertensive patients In patients Ͼ75 years of age, including those with renal disease, aliskiren appears well tolerated The major side effect is a low incidence of mild diarrhea, which usually does not lead to discontinuation There are no data on treating patients with an eGFR below 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 Nonspecific Vasodilators Because of their unfavorable side effects, hydralazine and minoxidil are fourth-line antihypertensive agents and only used as part of combination regimens As a monotherapy, both drugs cause tachycardia, and minoxidil causes fluid accumulation and atrial arrhythmias Centrally acting agents (e.g., clonidine) are not first-line treatments in the elderly because of sedation and/or bradycardia Abrupt discontinuation leads to increased BP and heart rate, which may aggravate ischemia and/or HF These agents should not be considered in noncompliant patients but may be used as part of a combination regimen if needed after several other agents are deployed Combination therapy provides more opportunity for enhanced efficacy, avoidance of adverse effects, enhanced convenience, and compliance It is important to consider the attributes of ACEIs, ARBs, and CAs, in addition to BP lowering Some combinations of these agents may provide even more protective effects on the CV system One trial of high-risk hypertensive elders, ACCOMPLISH (Avoiding Cardiovascular Events in Combination Therapy in Patients Living with Systolic Hypertension), found an ACEI–longacting CA combination superior to an ACEI–HCTZ combination in reduction of morbidity and mortality Uncomplicated Hypertension The 2009 updated European Society of Hypertension guidelines recommend initiating therapy in the elderly with thiazide diuretics, CAs, ACEIs, ARBs, or beta blockers based on a meta-analysis of major hypertension trials (23) Most elderly persons with hypertension will need Ն2 drugs When BP is Ͼ20/10 mm Hg above goal, consideration should be given to starting with drugs Complicated Hypertension In elderly patients who have CAD with hypertension and stable angina or prior MI, the initial choice is a beta blocker A long-acting dihydropyridine CA should be administered in addition to the beta blocker when the BP remains elevated or if angina persists An ACEI should also be given, particularly if LV ejection fraction is reduced and/or if HF is present A verapamil SR–trandolapril-based strategy is as clinically effective, in terms of BP control and adverse outcomes, as an atenolol–HCTZ-based strategy in hypertensive elderly CAD patients including those with prior MI Angina was better controlled with the verapamil SR–trandolapril strategy With acute coronary syndromes, hypertension should be treated with beta blockers and ACEI, with additional drugs added as needed for BP control Verapamil and diltiazem should not be used with significant LV systolic dysfunction or conduction system disease Although some guidelines recommend reducing BP to Ͻ130/80 mm Hg in CAD patients, there is limited evidence to support this lower target in elderly patients with CAD Observational data show the nadir BP for risk was 135/75 mm Hg among CAD patients 70 to 80 years of age and 140/70 mm Hg for patients Ն80 years of age Beta blockers with intrinsic sympathomimetic activity must not be used after MI Hypertension associated with LVH is an independent risk factor for CAD, stroke, PAD, and HF A large meta-analysis found ACEIs more effective than other antihypertensive drugs in decreasing LV mass However, all agents except for direct-acting vasodilators reduce LV mass if BP is controlled Elderly patients with hypertension and systolic HF should receive a diuretic, beta blocker, ACEI, and an aldosterone antagonist, in the absence of hyperkalemia or significant renal dysfunction, if necessary If a patient cannot tolerate an ACEI, an ARB should be used Elderly black Downloaded from content.onlinejacc.org by on April 25, 2011 Aronow et al Hypertension in the Elderly JACC Vol 57, No 20, 2011 May 17, 2011:000–00 hypertensive patients with HF may benefit from isosorbide dinitrate plus hydralazine Based on expert opinion, the BP should be reduced to Ͻ130/80 mm Hg in HF patients with CAD Elderly patients with hypertension and asymptomatic LV systolic dysfunction should be treated with ACEIs and beta blockers Because HF may improve in hypertensive elderly patients with RAS after renal revascularization, a search for RAS should be considered when HF is refractory to conventional management Diastolic HF is very common in the elderly Fluid retention should be treated with loop diuretics, hypertension should be adequately controlled, and when possible, comorbidities should be treated Although “The Seventh Report of the Joint National Committee on Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Pressure” recommends that elderly hypertensive patients with cerebrovascular disease (prior stroke or transient ischemic attack) should be treated with a diuretic plus an ACEI (22), reduction of stroke risk among elderly persons with hypertension is related more to reduction in BP than to type of antihypertensive drug Presence of aortic aneurysm requires very intense BP control to the lowest tolerated level Therapy should include an ACEI or ARB plus a beta blocker because, in addition to lowering BP, beta blockers decrease peak LV ejection rate In acute aortic dissection (acute aortic syndrome), control of BP with multiple drugs, including beta blockers, is needed for both type A and B (not involving the ascending aorta) dissections For PAD, lifestyle interventions include smoking cessation, weight loss, and a structured walking program Management of hypertension as well as coexistent CAD and HF are essential, as is control of blood glucose and lipids ACEIs or ARBs, and antiplatelet therapy are required In the absence of RCT data, guidelines recommend that patients with diabetes mellitus should have a BP Ͻ130/80 mm Hg If tolerated, multiple drugs are often required However, RCT data among those Ն65 years of age from the ACCORD BP (Action to Control Cardiovascular Risk in Diabetes Blood Pressure) trial found no additional benefit from a target SBP Ͻ120 mm Hg versus a target of 140 mm Hg Observational data from extended follow-up of the predominantly elderly INVEST (INternational VErapamil SR/Trandolapril Study) diabetes cohort suggest an increase in mortality when on-treatment SBP is Ͻ115 mm Hg or DBP Ͻ65 mm Hg Reduction of macrovascular and microvascular complications in elderly hypertensive diabetic patients depends more on reducing BP than on type of drugs used Drug choice depends on associated comorbidities However, thiazide diuretics will increase hyperglycemia Elderly persons with diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and nephropathy should be treated initially with ACEIs or ARBs In ACCOMPLISH, over the background of ACEI, diabetic patients treated with amlodipine had a 21% relative risk reduction and 2.2% absolute risk reduction in CV events compared with HCTZ plus the ACEI In elderly persons with prediabetes/metabolic syndrome, attempts should be made to reduce BP using lifestyle modification If drugs are needed, thiazide diuretics increase risk for incident diabetes mellitus, which has been associated with increased HF hospitalizations and other CV events in elderly patients with hypertension Based on expert opinion and observational data, elderly hypertension patients with CKD should have a target BP Ͻ130/80 mm Hg, if tolerated Drug regimens including ACEIs or ARBs are more effective than regimens without them in slowing progression of CKD ACEIs are indicated in patients with nondiabetic nephropathy However, there are no data on outcomes with any class of antihypertensive agent among elderly patients with hypertension and CKD Without proteinuria Ͼ300 mg/d, there are no data that ACEIs or ARBs are better than BP control alone with any other antihypertensive agent ACEIs or ARBs should be administered to elderly hypertensive patients with CKD if proteinuria is present Hypertension and HF are both associated with a more pronounced decline in renal function in older age With the recognition of early renal dysfunction, more patients should benefit from aggressive therapy In an observational study of elderly patients who were hospitalized with acute systolic HF and advanced CKD, ACEI use was associated with reduced mortality A retrospective cohort of elderly individuals with CKD and acute MI found benefit from aspirin, beta blockers, and ACEIs Aortorenal bypass has been used to treat hypertension, preserve renal function, and treat HF and unstable angina in RAS patients with ischemic nephropathy Advanced age and HF are independent predictors of mortality Percutaneous transluminal renal artery balloon angioplasty with stenting has replaced angioplasty alone because the stenosis usually involves narrowing of the ostium However, there is uncertainty regarding the benefit of stenting on BP control and CKD Other Conditions/Special Populations Among elderly persons with osteoporosis and calcium regulatory disorders, thiazide diuretics may preserve bone density and raise blood calcium levels Loop diuretics can decrease serum calcium Epithelial sodium transport channel antagonists may decrease urinary calcium and may be considered for people with calcium oxalate kidney stones Beta blockers and heart rate–slowing CAs (verapamil or diltiazem) should be used for ventricular rate control with supraventricular tachyarrhythmias in elderly persons with hypertension Beta blockers should be used for elderly patients with hypertension, complex ventricular arrhythmias, HF, hyperthyroidism, preoperative hypertension, migraine, or essential tremor Blacks: RAAS inhibitors appear less effective than other drug classes in decreasing BP in elderly blacks, unless combined with diuretics or CAs The initial agent in blacks with uncomplicated hypertension should be a thiazide diuretic CAs effectively lower BP in blacks and decrease CV events, especially stroke A diuretic or CA plus an ACEI would be a reasonable combination in blacks Blacks, many of whom have severe and complicated hypertension, usually will not achieve control with monotherapy Aldo- Downloaded from content.onlinejacc.org by on April 25, 2011 Aronow et al Hypertension in the Elderly JACC Vol 57, No 20, 2011 May 17, 2011:000–00 sterone antagonists (spironolactone and eplerenone) are often beneficial in resistant hypertension, including blacks Hispanics: Recommendations for pharmacological management of elderly Hispanic patients are the same as for elderly patients in general Women: There is no evidence that elderly women respond differently than elderly men to antihypertensive drugs Available data from HYVET (4) and other RCTs suggest that treatment of hypertension in octogenarians may substantially reduce CV risk and mortality, but benefits on cognitive function are less certain Although a BP Ͻ140/90 mm Hg is recommended for all patients in “The Seventh Report of the Joint National Committee on Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Pressure,” except for a lower level in special populations (22), randomized trial evidence to support this BP level in the very elderly is not robust Secondary analyses from INVEST and ACCOMPLISH showed no difference in effects of antihypertensive drug therapy on outcomes among those Ն80 years of age versus those Ͻ80 years of age However, ACCORD BP found no additional benefit, and increased drug-related adverse experiences, targeting a SBP of 120 versus 140 mm Hg in high-risk patients with diabetes mellitus who were Ͼ55 years of age Observational data from INVEST in hypertensive CAD patients showed a nadir for adverse outcomes at a mean on-treatment SBP of 135 mm Hg for patients 70 to 79 years of age and at 140 mm Hg for those Ն80 years of age The following recommendations are offered for persons Ն80 years of age Initiate treatment with a single drug followed by a second drug if needed Achieved SBP 140 to 145 mm Hg, if tolerated, can be acceptable Low-dose thiazides, CAs, and RAAS blockers are preferred, but concomitant conditions often dictate which drugs are most appropriate Octogenarians should be seen frequently with the medical history updated at each visit Standing BP should always be checked for excessive orthostatic decline Although BP values below which vital organ perfusion is impaired in octogenarians are not known, SBP Ͻ130 and DBP Ͻ65 mm Hg should be avoided Resistant hypertension (e.g., BP that remains above goal when patient adheres to lifestyle measures and maximum tolerated doses of complementary antihypertensive agents, including a diuretic) is associated with increasing age Reasons include higher arterial stiffness, decreased antihypertensive medication efficacy, higher baseline BP, higher incidence of organ damage and comorbidities, excess salt intake, weight, alcohol, nicotine, poor treatment compliance, volume overload, pseudohypertension, and NSAID use Elderly patients with higher baseline SBP typically have more severe or longer duration of hypertension that makes it more difficult to treat because it is often associated with autonomic dysfunction and organ damage Volume overload is commonly due to excessive salt intake, inadequate kidney function, or insufficient diuretic therapy Physicians are less aggressive treating very elderly patients as many believe that hypertension treatment in an 85 year old has more risks than benefits Pseudohypertension represents another reason for resistant hypertension Increased arterial stiffness due to heavily calcified arteries that cannot be fully compressed makes BP readings falsely higher than the intra-arterial BP Although therapy of resistant hypertension must be individualized, a combination of a RAAS blocker, a CA, and an appropriately dosed diuretic is frequently effective These agents must be given in adequate dosages at appropriate time intervals Lifestyle modifications (e.g., weight reduction, sodium restriction, reduction in alcohol intake, and the DASH [Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension] diet) may be useful, and secondary causes of hypertension should be considered Adherence to Pharmacological Therapy Adherence, defined as extent to which a patient takes medication as prescribed, is a major issue in antihypertensive therapy in all age groups A large proportion of elderly patients will discontinue or take the drugs inappropriately Nonadherence often results in failing to reach recommended BP targets and impacts outcomes Older age, previous nonadherence, low risk for CV events, competing health problems, nonwhite race, low socioeconomic status, treatment complexity (e.g., multiple dosing, pill burden), side effects, and cost of medications predict nonadherence Treatment Initiation and Goals Elderly patients who have hypertension are candidates for nonpharmacological interventions; if they remain hypertensive, drug therapy should be considered Achieved SBP values Ͻ140 mm Hg are appropriate goals for most patients Յ79 years of age; for those Ն80 years of age, 140 to 145 mm Hg, if tolerated, can be acceptable Future Considerations Prevention of Hypertension and Its Consequences Research should include both fundamental and clinical investigation defining pathogenesis of increased vascular and LV stiffness; RCTs to define appropriate treatment thresholds and goals; comparative effectiveness trials testing various treatment strategies (i.e., different regimens and different intensities of lifestyle modification); and assessing the relative safety and efficacy of these approaches in the prevention of mortality and morbidity Introduction 1.1 Document Development Process and Methodology 1.1.1 Writing Committee Organization The
